Since 1998, the average state excise tax on a pack of cigarettes has nearly tripled. Today statecigarette excise tax rates range from 7¢ a pack in South Carolina to $2.75 a pack in New York State. These much higher - and different - taxes create a big incentive for contraband cigarette trafficking.

Law enforcement investigations show that groups engaged in the contraband cigarette tradehave been associated with counterfeiting, drug trafficking and financial crimes such as moneylaundering. To learn about this issue and our programs that support law enforcement efforts to addresscontraband cigarette-related activity, please call PM USA toll-free at 877-224-3487.

Higher price = greater incentive
